The long-standing dispute between actor Unni Mukundan and his former manager Vipin Kumar appears to have been resolved.As reported by Asianet News, FEFKA General Secretary B. Unnikrishnan confirmed that the two parties were brought together for a discussion and that the matter was amicably settled.

He stated that the organization had not received any formal complaint against Vipin, and reiterated that no actresses have filed complaints either.“The matter is outside our scope now…”B. Unnikrishnan further clarified that the union would not intervene in the police complaint filed by Vipin against Unni Mukundan. He also dismissed Unni’s previous remarks that Vipin was never his manager and that complaints were pending against him within the organization, stating those claims were inaccurate.

“The matter is outside our scope now, as it is with the police,” he added.Vipin Kumar had earlier alleged in his police complaint that Unni Mukundan physically assaulted him after he posted a social media message praising Tovino Thomas’s film Narivetta. According to Vipin, the actor was reportedly frustrated over the lack of film opportunities post-’Marco’, and reacted aggressively during a confrontation.“I did fling his cooling glasses in the heat of the moment”In response, Unni Mukundan publicly refuted all accusations, labeling them as part of an orchestrated smear campaign.

He strongly denied any physical assault, stating that the only thing he did during the altercation was throw Vipin’s sunglasses. “There was a verbal disagreement. I did fling his cooling glasses in the heat of the moment, and I won’t deny that. But there was no physical violence,” Unni Mukundan said during a press meet.

The actor also clarified that he has never made any negative remarks about fellow actor Tovino Thomas, whom he considers a close friend. Expressing disappointment over Vipin’s actions, Unni said he was hurt by the betrayal from someone he once considered a friend.Unni Mukundan concluded by alleging that Vipin is not a FEFKA member and that some complaints had emerged against him in other contexts, but were not formally registered with the association.
